Choosing mountain and mountaineering glasses will effectively safeguard your eyes in any lighting and weather conditions, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in nature and focus solely on performance.

In the DEMON line of mountain glasses, you will find models featuring:

  • Polarized Photochromic Lenses 2 - 4: Recommended for mountaineering, ski mountaineering, and hiking, these glasses adapt to changing UV intensities by transitioning from a starting category of 2 to category 4 at peak activity. Additionally, they offer the benefits of polarized lenses, enhancing contrast perception of natural colors and providing sharper, more relaxed vision even in extreme light conditions. This ensures optimal performance in any atmospheric conditions, as we are well aware of the unpredictable nature of the mountains.

  • Photochromic Lenses 2 - 4: Also recommended for mountaineering, ski mountaineering, and hiking, these glasses adjust to varying UV intensities, transitioning from a starting category of 2 to category 4 at peak activity. This ensures optimal performance in any atmospheric conditions, as we recognize the unpredictable nature of the mountains.

  • Category 4 Lenses: Recommended for hiking, mountaineering, and Nordic walking, these glasses feature very dark lenses, often utilized on glaciers. They are most effective in areas with strong brightness and UV intensity. While category 4 lenses are typically reserved for mountaineering glasses, they can also benefit hikers and trekkers who are particularly sensitive to intense light.

  • Category 3 Lenses: Recommended for Nordic walking, hiking, and climbing, these glasses feature medium-dark lenses suitable for trips at lower altitudes, where the use of darker lenses is not necessary. The category 3 lens is versatile and can be used by any trekker seeking mountain glasses for outings at lower elevations.

  • Polarized Lenses: Recommended for hiking, climbing, and Nordic walking, these glasses feature comfortable lenses that provide better contrast perception of natural colors and clearer vision. The polarized lens option is ideal for trekkers seeking mountain glasses to accompany them on every outing.

  • Revo Anti-Fog Lenses: Recommended for hiking and Nordic walking, these glasses feature category 3 lenses that offer comfort comparable to polarized lenses. Externally, they boast a super-mirrored finish, essential even in the mountain environment. The internal surface is treated with an anti-fog coating to ensure optimal visibility throughout your route, even during intense exertion when body temperature rises rapidly. The new generation lens provides HD vision, offering perfect contrast of natural colors and clear visibility even in shaded areas, enhancing your outdoor experience in nature.

Ultra-Lightweight Frames Resistant to High and Low Temperatures:

The frames of these mountain glasses are crafted from a special blend of TR90, nylon, and carbon fiber, making them 20% lighter than conventional materials while enhancing their resilience to accidental impacts and strains. TR90 is the optimal material for crafting mountain and mountaineering glasses due to its superior resistance to both high and low temperatures.

For certain models, an adjustable elastic band made from neoprene is included to provide a better fit and grip during demanding passages, making it particularly useful for climbing sections and alpine activities. In the case of the COLORADO model, a rim is incorporated for the complete installation of the elastic band, while other models feature a designated hole in the frame for secure attachment.

Furthermore, depending on the model, there is a removable internal sweatband made of hypoallergenic rubber. This feature prevents sweat from dripping into the eyes during intense exertion and also provides protection from lateral sunlight. This technology is particularly appreciated by those who engage in alpinism.

Additionally, some models come with adjustable nose pads to ensure the best fit and optimal comfort. These pads are made of hypoallergenic rubber with an aluminum core, specifically designed to adapt to various facial shapes.
